can print from some apps, but not others

[munroe]

I have a cups server running on debian lenny:

version: 1.3.8-1lenny2

from a client also running debian lenny I am able to print from OOorg and Icedove (Thunderbird).  I am not able to print from gedit, iceweasel (firefox) and many other apps.  I can replicate this on an ubuntu desktop as well, same behavior.  I added the same printer a few different ways to see if there was something wonky with the ppd or the naming scheme I chose.  below are the cupsd.conf and the printers.conf files

Here is my cupsd.conf
